AzDadOnFire yes you could use different power heads. What I would do is have the most powerful head start the cut, then once your in run the second head under load the two should sync up . other ppl might say different probably because they have been conditioned their whole lives to think differently. The only thing you might run into is a difference in the diameter at the base of the cover posts. I ordered my bar with no slot and cut it in myself.
I noticed that there is a space between the guide bars and the top of the log. Is this due to the bar sagging and making a slightly concave cut, or is it due to the guide bars flexing up in the middle due to the weight of the power heads? Or perhaps a combination of the two? I've not run over a 36" bar and haven't run into this...
Looking at it again I see there is no handle bar installed, just the guide bars. As such it probably is the guide bars flexing under the weight of the power heads. This as the handle bar would tend to stiffen things up and keep the guide bars straight.
Slick1G3 unless they can't get it to a mill, or there isn't one big enough around. I'm going to be milling a 54" oak in October, and where it's dropped, I can't get machinery big enough to it that will haul the logs out. I'm hoping if the tree service cranes them down, they could crane them onto a truck for me. But worst case, they will be milled on site.
Didn't know Riddick was in the milling business right now, for a necromancer he's doing a great job. Cheers
Beautiful Walnut. Nice Work!
I think that was awesome as a finish cut
Është e pabesushme gjigand lis është Bravo bravo
I would like to know where you got the invisible hearing protection. It really looked comfortable. Putz.
Smell a write up coming
What?
Awesome
Wow!
Dining room table anyone??
NICE
Looks like Riddick
Great work
Not bad, 5 grand worth of saws so must have ran out of money for ear plugs
Time to sharpen up, guys!
man, you know where I can get that bar and the chain,
it sells it somewhere??
great job
Cool milling, bit seriously you need some ear defenders. I have worked with a few old boys who are hard of hearing due to not wearing protection.
Should mount a double winch system, one for each user
I'd like to know what that slab weighed. I'm guessing 1,200 pounds.
The center of the mill looked like it was bowing. Not touching the center of the slab.
greate job
do the saws have to be tuned close to each other? i was thinking about doing this with a 660 and 066

Bill Sielsky thank you for the response
KimballCody No I wouldn't say that they have to be tuned just in the same rpm operating range.I would put the most powerful head on the cut off side.

wau
No hearing protection?
gary24752. Oh there in there playing my all time favorite Deep House.
Is walnut a hardwood ?
Yes. It is slightly less dense than oak and very tough.
Yes
Didn't show the grains up close....
give me a bandsaw mill anyday .those slabs are not flat you can see where the bar is bending down in the middle

Maybe you didn't notice but they were using a chainsaw. This ain't finish work.
